In China, this answer may be cruel.
Not long ago, a director in Beijing experienced a take-away life and came to the conclusion that it was not easy. He worked 12 hours and earned 4 1 yuan, which was very grievance!
On may 10, the director and inspection team had a dialogue with the company representatives of meituan, and the information obtained was shocking!
First, there are 654.38+00000000 people registered on the Meituan platform, but these 654.38+00000000 people are not regular employees, but are outsourced to the contractor.
Because of outsourcing, many takeout workers can only get the lowest social security, or even no social security!
Second, the inspection team asked: If the takeaway rider has an accident, is the US Mission responsible or the supplier responsible? The representative of the US Mission is very direct: "This matter is the responsibility of commercial insurance. There are too many riders, and we can't be completely directly responsible. "
Guess what, the commercial insurance of 3 yuan a day was deducted by Meituan from the commission of takeaway!
Even in front of the inspection team, the representatives of Meituan Company are indifferent and arrogant.
They used to treat workers as people!
Statistics show that from 20 13 to 2020, the scale of China take-away market will increase from 63.48 billion yuan to 835.2 billion yuan.
Users and capital, growing geometrically, are of course the pockets of capitalists.
Hungry, it was successfully acquired by Ali at a high price, and the share price of Meituan also soared.
It took only a few years to develop from a small company to an industry giant.
What nourishes these giants are countless take-away employees.
Chen Hui (pseudonym) is an employee of Meituan. After he resigned from the construction site and joined the takeaway industry, his working hours doubled.
From 9: 30 am to 8: 00 pm, I will be on duty once or twice a week until the evening 12, and I can only rest 1~2 days a month.
Although wearing Meituan's clothes, he is not a real employee of Meituan, but appointed by a third-party logistics company.
Take orders, take meals and deliver meals.
Under the calculation of the takeaway platform, his meal delivery time was compressed again and again.
From one hour to 45 minutes, then to 30 minutes.
There is a countdown to food delivery on the APP. He is like a time bomb with a mobile phone, because if it is not delivered on time, he will face a fine!
Overtime 10 minutes will be punished by 5 yuan, 20 minutes will be punished by kloc-0/0 yuan, and so on; In addition, if you have an argument with a customer, you will be fined 50 pounds.
On the fine list, there are more than 10.
In order to catch up with the time, the speed of his riding an electric car can only be described as "desperate".
Now, if you enter the keyword "takeaway, traffic accident" in Baidu search, you can get 654.38+03.8 million results.
Almost every day, the takeaway brother has an accident.
On April 20 15, a high school student was injured by a delivery clerk of the US Mission. Finally, the court decided that the delivery man was in a hurry and hit a pedestrian. Meituan compensation157,000 yuan.
20 17 1.2, a delivery man in Shanghai was killed on suspicion of running a red light.
Some time ago, the news of the sudden death of the takeaway brother detonated the whole network. Guess how much the US Mission lost?
Just 600 thousand.
The inspection team asked the representative of the US delegation: "Is this outside your commercial insurance or under the pressure of public opinion?"
The representative of the US delegation replied: "It should be the latter."
The subtext of the representative is that if it were not for such a big public opinion, it would not lose 600 thousand.
Perhaps in their eyes, the life of a takeaway is not worth 600,000!
Even though the risks and pressures are so great, many people still choose to squeeze into this industry.
What can people who come to work in big cities in Qian Qian do without takeout?
Going to the factory, where there is indifferent assembly line production and paramilitary management, not only is labor intensive, but also workers are not allowed to walk around, talk and play with mobile phones at will, and they are tired to death every day.
And the wages of white-collar workers in many cities are only five or six thousand.
If you run hard for takeout, your salary can reach 8 thousand to 10 thousand. Although there is no employment contract and no social security.
The takeaway platform also captures the mentality of migrant workers. They saved the cost and time of building a huge logistics team through outsourcing companies, and also shirked the social security responsibility of hundreds of thousands of takeaway troops.
Some people have calculated that once the US Mission is required to pay five insurances and one gold for nearly 10 million takeaway brothers, the annual cost will rise by at least 654.38+0 billion yuan.
In order to save this money, the giants will do whatever it takes.
Take "Meituan" as an example. At the beginning of 20 14, Meituan only had more than 200 employees, covering only 20 key cities in China.
Today, Meituan has a distribution team of more than 3 million people, and only tens of thousands of them are directly affiliated employees.
In most third-party distribution companies, the delivery staff have no formal labor contract, let alone five insurances and one gold.
In the salary structure, there is no basic salary, only a commission for each delivery fee.
A more invisible squeeze is that the takeaway thinks that his job is free and he can run around.
But in fact, they have no freedom at all.
With the calculation of big data, these giants used a set of algorithms to control the trajectory of takeaway.
The ranking of the number of tickets delivered, the riding distance and the number of favorable comments has made these riders fall into the "catch-up game" of capital customization. This extends the working hours in disguise and increases the working intensity.
Studies have shown that the average daily working time of riders is 1 1.4 hours, which has become the standard of "sweatshop" in manufacturing industry.
Under the algorithm, the take-away body is like a machine on an assembly line.
Just like last year's very popular article "Takeaway Riders, Trapped in the System" wrote:
Yes, capitalists are never soft on workers. Someone escaped from Foxconn's assembly line, but did not escape the big data of Meituan.
The big data mastered by the platform is not for users, but for them to exploit workers to the greatest extent and fool consumers to the greatest extent!
It can be seen that the take-away economy has created a large number of employment opportunities in the depressed manufacturing industry, which is an important change in China's labor market in recent years.
Compared with the squeezing of factories, the squeezing of Internet platforms is more hidden.
In manufacturing, migrant workers can also improve their working and living conditions through legal procedures, and factories generally pay the minimum five insurances.
But in the take-away economy, these can be avoided.
According to the law, the amount that the company punishes employees cannot exceed 20% of their monthly salary. If the amount deducted is lower than the minimum wage, it shall be paid according to the minimum wage.
However, at present, the platform's punishment measures for riders are not limited to this. Often, a bad review from customers can make the rider's work in a week go up in smoke.
What does a retail seller rely on to fight against these giants?
The take-away platform is to use the legal ambiguity to make the platform enjoy the greatest control and bear the least responsibility to the rider!
Holding smart phones and riding electric cars in the metropolis, they are still a group of migrant workers who eat youthful meals. No one knows where their future lies, and no one guarantees them.
Of course, there may be some extreme phenomena
For example, now, every security guard, every cleaner and every courier has a labor contract, and Liu insists on paying employees five insurances and one gold in full.
Liu said: "If your company sacrifices the life-saving money of its employees by deducting five insurances and one gold from them after the age of 60, it is shameful money. How much you earn will make me feel uneasy and have no sense of accomplishment. "
However, there is only one Liu, and his employees are limited, and the capitalist's commitment is also changeable.
How to save 1000000 more than one takeaway worker who is eating capitalist "leftovers"?
We expect the country to see these people who can't get the "sun"!
Introduce policies, give the giants some restrictions and give them some care!
If you order takeout, I hope you can transfer this call.
